About Bread Dad

The goal of Bread Dad is to supply its visitors with great tasting & EASY recipes. We have tons of instructions & recipe tips because we want to simplify your home baking and help you to make great homemade breads, banana breads, sweet quick breads, etc.

Bread Dad has hundreds of different recipes (including 50+ bread machine recipes) for you to enjoy! They include very easy recipes for white bread, whole wheat bread, oatmeal bread, many different banana breads, bread machine cranberry nut bread, bread machine pumpkin bread, bread machine pizza dough, bread machine cornbread, etc.

In case you are wondering who Bread Dad is… I am just a Dad who likes to make bread and other baking “experiments” for his family. I try to make numerous product batches for each recipe until I know that it comes out perfectly every time. I want to make sure that these recipes work well for you.

Given that I am bread loving guy (and Marine Corps veteran), I also try to make sure that my website’s recipe instructions are super detailed in order to help baking novices or people inexperienced with this type of baking. Moreover, I try to use “real” food pictures and not carefully staged photos. I want you to see how the end result will actually look like (versus some unobtainable baking perfection). There is no point disappointing people with photos of great looking but impossible to make at home foods.

In addition, I REALLY appreciate every visitor who leaves a comment or question because this helps to clarify & improve our recipe instructions. Your comments are also super helpful to other home bakers because they benefit from all of your recipe variations and baking tips.

You will only find great tasting & easy to make baking recipes on this website as I will leave super fancy dinner recipes to others… like my wife. 🙂 Baking at home should be fun, simple and hopefully error free. I hope that your family enjoys these easy recipes… mine certainly does!

If you have a question regarding a particular recipe, please post your question in the comment section at the bottom of that recipe page. Your questions (and hopefully my answers) will help others who might not be brave enough to post their own recipe questions. We also love to hear from people who have enjoyed our recipes!! Compliments are always welcome. 🙂

In addition, if you want to contact me about new recipe ideas or suggestions, please use our contact page. I look forward to hearing from you.

  • THarris posted some delicious ingredient additions to my Eggless Banana Bread Recipe – “Amazing,delish! Added orange rind, vanilla extract, cinnamon – all one tsp each. Used oil instead of butter.“
  • Jessica made some amazing chocolate chip bagels out of our Bread Machine Bagels recipe and kindly posted some very useful tips – “I experimented with the chocolate chips. So what I did was let the dough cool for a bit after the dough cycle, but before it started rising again was sectioned it into 8 pieces. I gently kneaded in a handful of chocolate chips into the individual pieces. I shaped my pieces into bagels. I was sure to fold in the chocolate chips so none of them were or exposed on the surface of the dough. I then boiled and baked each bagel. They came out perfect. Chocolate chips held up just fine. The bagels tasted great. I ate one immediately after they had baked, and then contemplated eating the whole batch. They were the perfect chewy consistency I was hoping for in a bagel.“
  • Dutch posted a wonderful oatmeal variation of my No Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies – “I reviewed these amazing cookies a few weeks ago, easily giving them five stars, and mentioned that I planned on trying them again with oatmeal. Today is my grandson’s birthday and when asked what he’d like me to make for him, without hesitation, he asked for Bread Dad’s cookies. Just finished making them… adding two cups of regular oats with the chocolate chips, and cutting them into the batter with a spatula. The results were perfect. The cookies had a bit more heft to them AND I got a few more… about 48. Again… I was religious about chilling the dough. Thanks again for the recipe!“
  • PattiAnn posted some great tips on how to make my Bread Machine Italian Bread Recipe in her Breville countertop oven. Please visit the comments section on the recipe page for more of her comment. – “I always use the proof funtion in winter as well as summer. This gives you a constant temp when proofing. Also, most of the time I will lay a piece of foil lightly over the loaf halfway through the baking process. This prevents over browning of the loaf. This happens because your loaf is in a more confined oven and closer to the heating elements.. I also bake in CI, Romatopf, bread bowls, all works. As long as it fits you can use it to bake in. I used an Italian bread pan to bake the Italian loaves.“
  • SamanthaH posted some great “end products” that use my Bread Machine French Bread. I am going to try out her pizza bread idea tonight! – “This bread has been a staple in our home for a couple years now! I make it and freeze so it’s available when needed. Makes amazing garlic bread, bruschetta, pizza bread, or on its own with butter. So impressed with the recipe and the minimal ingredients is a huge plus!!!“
